Experiencia fantástica: Very good school i had a nice and wonderful teacher named Mr.Holt. I highly recommend him for teaching !!.

Experiencia fantástica: Mr. Ed Bentley was great!

Experiencia fantástica: Good online class and great in car instructor Mr. Holt. Gave my child great information and direction on his driving skills and on navigating the driving test at MVA. My child had their first highway driving experience with Mr. Holt. They did great. Highly recommend.

Experiencia fantástica: Mr. Ed Bentley made the class so very enjoyable! He was absolutely a great instructor and was extremely fun, knowledgeable, and interactive. I certainly enjoyed every lesson he taught and retained all the information!

Experiencia fantástica: I had a great time learning from them. I think the best teacher there was Darryl Holt. He taught me so much. So if you want to actually learn I suggest you learn from him.

Experiencia negativa: I would have gave them 5 stars, since for the most part it is a good driving school but I had a few issues. The first and BIGGEST issue I had was with my online driving teacher. He went around the class asking our occupation, I told him I was a SAM to a special needs child. He chuckles and goes on to hint at that I'm most likely receiving government benefits and that he "knows my type". It made me and the people who caught on very uncomfortable it was so disgusting and he just laughed it off. After I passed my tests and went on to the driving part , I almost had no issues and it was great. The only thing I can say is that one of the driving instructors was visibly annoyed by another coworker and took it out on me for the first part of our drive but he later chilled out and turned out to be pretty cool but definitely unprofessional. So I guess that's why I have to give 2 stars. If it wasn't for the ignorance and unprofessionalism of some employees I would've recommended to loved ones and friends! Never again.

Experiencia fantástica: Coach Michal Billups is an amazing teacher. He is patient, humorous, and really cares about your safety. His teachings improved my driving astronomically and I use a lot of his tips even to this day. I can’t recommend him enough,

Experiencia fantástica: Toni the reason I selected beltway driving Academy. I originally called the school that my kids had attended, the owner was abrupt. I decided to call Beltway Academy. Toni was courteous; took time to explain to me the classes, the time frames and the prices; very professional, and promised to do her best in accommodating my grandson’s schedule.

Experiencia fantástica: Thank you Mr. Holt for helping me pass the test! I still remember the roundabout lesson and used it today. Yall, I reccomend him as your driving teacher because he is experienced, patient and explain things well. Thanks again!

Experiencia fantástica: Mr.Holt prepared me and got me ready for the road and gave good tips and feedback

Experiencia fantástica: I want to give a big thanks to Beltway Driving Academy for helping me build the skills I need to become a competent driver. I was very satisfied with both the classroom and behind the wheel lessons. I would like to give special recognition to Coach Michal Billups, whose extreme patience and extensive knowledge helped me greatly in my journey to become a safe driver. I would recommend Beltway Driving Academy for anyone in search of a driving school with professional, highly knowledgeable instructors.

Experiencia fantástica: I was referred by a close friend, and Beltway Driving Academy was a great driving school that helped me to get my license. The instructors I had were very engaging, personable, and cared about my success. The online portion taught by Mr. Ming was very informative and made sure every student was engaged and cared about each student’s success individually. The online course has a quiz at the end of each class. As a student, if you are engaged you should have no problems passing the course. My on the road portion was taught by Mr. Gregory Holt and he was very helpful and personable. He was a great instructor that greatly helped my driving ability and my parking. I would recommend them to anyone that ask.

Experiencia fantástica: Beltway driving Academy made a better and confident driver, all thanks to Mr Darryl Holt, who was patient enough to teach and explain things to me like the professional that he is,Mr Holt because of you I passed my road test in just one try.. Ask for him to be your BTW coach you will not regret it.

Experiencia fantástica: When I attended Beltway Driving Academy I didn't know what to expect; to my surprise the instructors were amazing, the behind the wheel lesson was even better. The instructor was patient, knowledgeable and knew the area well. They taught me how to navigate intersections, change lanes, merging into traffic and park. Going to Beltway Driving Academy was a good decision.

Experiencia fantástica: Good drive

Experiencia fantástica: This is a great driving school. Coach Michal Billues was a great coach, very professional, and he made learning seem easy. Especially when teaching me how to park

If you or a loved one are looking for a place to help take the anxiety out of driving in a respectful and professional environment, then you've found just the place

Experiencia fantástica: Coach Michal Billups was a excellent help

Experiencia positiva: Online rules are a little to strict if I’m paying 385 dollars for a class it shouldn’t matter where I join the class, I do have a job outside of this so I shouldn’t be penalized for that, but other than that it’s good

Experiencia negativa: Unable to get ahold of anyone over the phone. Also not responsive to emails. It took 4 months to set up the in person driving portion. Very frustrating experience.

Experiencia fantástica: Very helpful and friendly. Instructors were friendly and easy to talk to.

Experiencia negativa: I had a make up lesson with the instructor Darryl and it was a very difficult lesson. I had two lessons previously with another instructor, Toni Hetzer, and she was so unbelievably helpful and made me very confident about my driving. I genuinely looked forward to driving because of her. Unfortunately due to snow I was rescheduled with another instructor, Darryl, and it was very clear he was uninterested in being there. Throughout the 1 hour and 30 min lesson he grabbed the wheel without warning multiple times. He would wait until the last second to warn me about the direction I was to be turning. I would give him the benefit of the doubt and say maybe I could get better at my reaction speed but I never had this issue with my previous instructor. While on the highway I was aware of the fact that he was falling asleep which was not helpful. I have never been a nervous driver but I was driving with him and maybe he was having an off day but I hope no one has him on such a day.

Experiencia fantástica: Clear communication and great driving instructions. My daughter had no issues with online learning and appreciated the support given.

Experiencia fantástica: Excellent services.. Because of them I have a second driver...

Experiencia fantástica: Excellent service! I would definitely recommend this driving school for everyone.

Experiencia negativa: Would give 0 stars. Can never reach an instructor and it has caused me to time out of taking my classes, so it was a waste of money. Rules for online learning were not clear from the beginning, otherwise i wouldnt have wasted money here as i chose online since i work full time.

Experiencia fantástica: Mr. Jones is an amazing instructor and also teaches you all the tips and tricks you need while on the road. He also knows how to keep up a good conversation which is a plus!

Experiencia fantástica: Very professional and very helpful driving school great classroom experience and even better behind the wheel experience I highly recommend Mr. Lee as he cares about the students and will work on improving ur skills not just to pass the test but to be a skillful and safe driver on your own overall great experience

Experiencia fantástica: I had a really great experience here learning at the Beltway Driving Academy! At first I was nervous, but the environment and teacher showed me that it wasn't all that bad. The staff here are friendly and informational for all the questions and concerns you have. Mr. Darryl was my teacher, he made learning about Driver's Ed a lot of fun and quite enjoyable!

Experiencia fantástica: I had a great experience with Beltway Driving Academy. Starting out I was really nervous to get on the road, but Mr Jose assured me that I would do fine and made me feel more comfortable. He is an amazing teacher, I learned a lot from him, and I’m really thankful that I got him as my teacher. I would highly recommended Beltway Driving Academy!!

Experiencia fantástica: The best decision I've ever made choosing Beltway Driving Academy Ms.Cassandra was the best.

Experiencia fantástica: Wonderful driving school! Great driving instructors with a caring nature.

Experiencia fantástica: Loved this place!

Experiencia negativa: Giving a one on this company is very hard, because they were good in teaching my daughter in the class room. However, the reason for the one rating is due to the fact that they have not scheduled the driving part with my child. We have called them several times from the month of May 2018 and now it is Feb 2019 and they still have not returned our phone call to finalize the driving part that I paid for. I paid the $425.00 and right now feel like they just took my money with little to no service. I don't know who is in the office now but they have not been a very good company for my daughter and me. I will be calling my lawyer to get my money back so we can go to another company. This has been one of the worst experiences yet.

Experiencia fantástica: Wonderful experience. Nice instructor who is very understanding. !

Experiencia fantástica: The classes are very informative and enjoyable

Experiencia fantástica: The school did a very good job teaching me the in's and out's of beginners driving. I liked my teacher, Ms.Cassandra, because of her forward but considerate style of teaching. I learned a lot and passed the final exam with a 98%. 10/10 would do again.

Experiencia fantástica: I would recommend this driving school to 10/10. The instructors make it fun to learn and are very easy going and will work with you. I loved it and my instructor Mrs.Lita was a big part of the experience.

Experiencia fantástica: Just finished the last day of class, and thanks to Ms. Ragland, an otherwise boring 36 hours was actually enjoyable

Experiencia fantástica: Great place to learn driving. I was extremely impressed. Love you guys

Experiencia fantástica: Truly an experience, with dedicated Instructors. Come & See for yourselves!

Experiencia fantástica: Very caring and warm environment good information great staff

Experiencia fantástica: Ms. Cassandra was amazing and the whole experience was delightful, I’m glad I went to this and I’d definitely recommend it to family and friends

Experiencia fantástica: the school was great, shout out to Ms.Cassandra ! you all should really give her a raise. She makes the learning more fun when she can as well.

Experiencia fantástica: Amazing Teachers

Experiencia fantástica: Great experience with my driving class, I had a phenomenal experience with my classmates & all the thanks must go to Ms.Cassandra, she made me want to learn about the road & now I know the needs to be a safe driver for myself, my passengers, pedestrians, & everyone else on the road.

Experiencia fantástica: Everyone that works at beltway driving academy was really nice. They made the whole process easy and fun. Mrs. Lita was a great teacher and Caleb was a great driving instructor. Thank you both I really learned a lot and feel I have improved.

Experiencia fantástica: Just finished my drive time with an instructor and I highly recommend this academy to anyone whether you’ve been driving for quite a while or just started. I would like to give a huge thanks to my instructor Mr. Jose Vega. He was incredibly patient and very informative. I’m normally a very anxious person when it comes to driving but Mr.Vega made everything very simple and straightforward and created the perfect learning environment. I’ve learned so much in a short period of time which lets me know that these instructors are very knowledgeable and considerate. This driving academy will not disappoint!

Experiencia fantástica: My teacher was funny and very helpful. BOONK GANGGGGGGGGGG

Experiencia fantástica: Loved the staff. They made the learning experience fun and interesting.

Experiencia fantástica: Teachers are very nice!

Experiencia fantástica: This driving school was a great experience. My teacher, Ms. Cassandra, was given a brand new curriculum to teach and she taught it flawlessly. Within two weeks I was familiar with the comprehensive information that the MVA required us to learn. Although Ms. Cassandra had taught a multitude of classes (as she gets a new batch every two weeks) I sensed no apathy and my experience was truly unique. I recommend this school to anyone and I am sure they will get their money's worth.

Experiencia fantástica: The Best Driving School Ever! I would recommend this school to everybody!!

Experiencia fantástica: Great place! Teacher is awesome , people are friendly! I recommend this to everybody!!!!

Experiencia fantástica: This was the best driving school ever! I wish I can go back. Ms.Cassandra was so awesome and funny. I loved her. She taught me alot in 2 weeks . I see progress in my driving!. I want to consider beltway to everyone this is the place to go. You will love it!

Experiencia fantástica: I would recommend the school to anyone searching for driving school because the class instructor Ms Cassandra is good at what she does , the class was interactive, fun and made all the driving information easy to comprehend.

Experiencia negativa: To whom it may concern, I am emailing this complaint because the level of service and instruction from Cassandra Raglin is substandard. She teaches at the Bowie office Beltway Driving Academy, 3012 Mitchellville Rd, Bowie, MD 20716. Here are the concerns outlying her inability to continue instructing: 1. She instructs at a pace that not suitable nor comprehended by 90% of the students. 2. She is very unprofessional in her mannerisms and attitude. 3. She brings her children into the classroom and occupies desktop chairs; leaving students to acquire additional chairs with no desktop. 4. Her rate of failures reflects her inability to instruct effectively. 5. She assigns proctored tests with no designated completion time, nor gives any status or visible means to identify when to be completed. 6. She rushes to teach within the 3 hours without any regards to the actual lesson objectives being met. 7. She makes unprofessional remarks stating "I have my license, yall need to pay attention!". 8. She contradicts herself by instructing to drive safe and don't "road rage", but she then gives personal experiences when she did not drive safe and constantly displays road rage. Recommendation: 1. Fire her immediately to save the future of the bussiness. 2. Conduct reviews in her classroom conduct to validate her effectiveness (hidden cameras). 3. reassign her to a position where she can benefit the company and not instruct until she gets recertified by corporate or a review board. This has been a perfect reflection of unprofessional behavior that goes without accountability. She should never have been in the position that she is allowed. She does not, nor will ever understand the threshold of learning and how to properly instruct. v/r Concerned Student

Experiencia fantástica: My hope in this school was better than I could ever imagine. I was treated well from the first day. I want to congratulate the teacher Cassandra the care to make me interact with other students and to apply the tests in a language I can understand. Thank the teacher Cassandra and staff at the school. Thank you

Experiencia fantástica: it was pretty good since I live right down Mitchellville road..

Experiencia fantástica: thought I knew everything but I learnt a lot of things here. Ms. Cassandra was amazing she truly knows what she is doing.

Experiencia fantástica: It was a good driving school. Ms Ragland thoroughly explained all the material and made sure we understood everything to be ready for our tests!

Experiencia fantástica: Best Driving School! My teacher name was Mrs.Cassandra Ragland, she did a great job explaining everything!

Experiencia positiva: Ms. Cassandra was a cool teacher once we got to know her. Even though she real live went on me like twice, I knew she was joking. She's a good teacher, and she makes the lessons fun, JUST BE ON TIME. Thanks for everything, GIVE HER A RAISE!!!! hahaha....

Experiencia fantástica: I loved the TEACHER . I went to the Bowie location! She kept the class entertained and I loved her examples

Experiencia fantástica: I really enjoyed attending Beltway Driving Academy. I had a good, attentive class and we learned a lot. Our teacher, Ms. Cassandra was excellent and I'm glad I had her.

Experiencia fantástica: I had Ms. Ragland and it was a great learning environment. Not only did she teach us what we needed to know but explained it in a way that I would understand it and I am sure that's how everyone else felt in class. It was a great way to learn I would definitely recommend it to others to sign up because you wont regret it its money worth spent on learning how to drive.

Experiencia positiva: My experience with this Driving School was well. I learned a lot of new things that I had not known before and will help me with becoming a safe driver. I had learned about that people under the age of 21 with a BAC of .02 would be charged with a criminal misdemeanor. This was interesting to me because if I hadn't known and got pulled over and had taken cough syrup I would be charged. Also the teacher was nice enough to help us understand what we did not know. My teacher was Ragland, Cassandra.
